Lies! It's all lies!

Still applicable unfortunately

  Who here has heard the Green Day song "American Idiot"? I'm assuming a fair number of you have. It was incredibly popular around 2005 and was damn near impossible to escape for a few years there. If you haven't heard the song before, the gist of it is that the singer feels America is becoming a slave to propaganda and a hidden agenda, and he doesn't want to be any include here because of true they are.

One nation controlled by the media.
Information age of hysteria.
It's calling out to idiot America.
-Green Day, American Idiot (2004)

   I can share the feeling. I've been thinking lately that the far right has become so swayed by their talking heads that there really is no longer a way to change their opinions. Anything that a liberal says will be deflected as "posturing and lies put forth by the liberal media to further their evil objectives". What can we do?

Republican? No. Libertarian? No. What then?

If you have any feedback about the post, feel free to leave a comment. I'm always up for conversation.

 I had a great conversation with a few trolls on Twitter the other night. They were tracking down articles with a liberal slant so that they could make unpleasant comments. So I tried my hand at trolling them back, and I learned something interesting in the process. There is an increasing number of Americans who are neither HRC supporters nor El Presidente Trump supporters. These people believe that all government is evil. They don't care if it's Bernie Sanders or Bill Clinton. They're convinced that our current governing situation is solely in place to terrorize the common man and steal from him. Not only does that sound like utter hogwash, it's a dangerous attitude to be adopting about the country you inhabit.

Panic in the streets!

How Mister Trump? How will you make America great again?
It wasn't that great to begin with.

  I'll admit that I'm afraid. I'm afraid of a post Trump America. I'm afraid of the hate we'll see. I'm afraid that it will be directed at me and my family. I am the happy son of a transsexual parent. I am a homosexual who is in a committed relationship. I have issues with mental illness. All these things make Trump's America a very dangerous place for me. I would not be surprised if you found out it was a dangerous place for you as well. There's far to much hate being spread right now.
